Chapter 25.2 - Help! I'm going to get eaten!

Seeing Lanyu's pitiful appearance, Li Xinwen can only sigh. "I'm not angry. Stop crying, alright? In the future, I may put in some animals inside but you are not allowed to eat them without permission, understood?" Li Xinwen said as he gave Lanyu a serious look. "I want you to swear on this."

"Lanyu promise! If Lanyu ever breaks this promise, may the heaven sends down lightning to strike me down and my soul forever unable to reincarnate!" Lanyu said as he looked straight to Li Xinwen.

"Good. I think I should go back. I'll take these two books with me. Continue to prepare the cultivation manual. I'll come again later to take it out," Li Xinwen said as he closed the book in his hand and grabbed the other one. "How do I get out?" Li Xinwen asked Lanyu. Some pocket dimension requires special method to get out and Li Xinwen wondered if this pocket dimension is one of those few.

"As long as master just wished to get out, then you will exit the dimension. Same with coming in and placing items inside the dimension. Taking out is also the same but of course, master must first know the things that you want to take out. For the cultivation manual, just call Lanyu later and Lanyu will help master to take it out! No need to come in personally!" Lanyu explained happily.

"Alright. Later, I will be sending in some cats, your task will be to take care of them. And no eating them! Got it?" Li Xinwen made sure to warn Lanyu who quickly nods his head. "Good. I'll go now. Behave, alright?"

"Yes, master!" Lanyu saluted Li Xinwen before he watched Li Xinwen disappear from his place. Afterward, Lanyu let out a relieved sigh before he went back to the shelves to continue taking out cultivation manuals for the Yang body type. 

When Li Xinwen returned to his apartment, he saw that everything remained almost the same. Almost being the keyword because the cats are now actively playing with each other. Li Xinwen then looked up at the clock on the wall and saw that even though he spent about half an hour in the dimension, only three minutes passed. 'So the time flow is different in that dimension...' Li Xinwen thought before he grabbed one of the cats by the scruff of its neck. It was a white cat with an odd-eye. "You know, if you're born in Long Xing, you'll probably one of those rare spirit or demon beasts," Li Xinwen chuckled before he tried to communicate Lanyu through his mind.

'Lanyu, I'm sending one of the cats over to you now,' Li Xinwen said and soon, the cat in his hand disappeared into thin air.

Back inside the dimension, Lanyu saw a cat appearing outside the cottage and can't help but feel excited. "Aaah! Master, I saw the cat. Should I get it into the house?" Lanyu asked.

[Li Xinwen: No. Just let them stay outside. It'll be bad if they mess the things inside the house.]

"Alright! Then how about Lanyu just make a smaller house for them?" Lanyu asked again.

[Li Xinwen: ... well, if you want to. I'm sending the rest over to you.]

As soon as Li Xinwen said that, the rest of the cats appeared in the dimension. At first, there was only one so there was not much reaction but now they all appeared, it suddenly became noisy. This was because the cats were afraid since they are in unknown territory. Not long after that, more items appeared. From scratching post to their bed, their toys, as well as their litter. For Lanyu, it was the first time he saw these things so he can't help but ask Li Xinwen.

"Master, what are these?" as soon as the question left his lips, a book fell from the sky and hit Lanyu on his head. In the book, there's instruction on how to operate the cat's toys. The instructions were all handwritten by hand by the original Li Xinwen for his sister. Not only that, the book also has each cat's preferences, how to bathe them, and what time they should have their meal.

[Li Xinwen: Those are what the original owner of my body wrote for his sister. You can use those and learn how to take care of the cats! I'm putting in the food next!]

Soon, cans of cat food fell from the sky. Lanyu stared at the mess before him before letting out a sigh. "First... let's get you all settled!" Lanyu said before he put the book inside his own storage ring. Then, he proceeded to rearrange the cat's belonging. Since he's not allowed to bring them into the house, they can only stay outside for now until he finished making them their house. Unfortunately, for the cats, seeing a flying fairy was a first to them and out of curiosity, one of them jumped up and pounced on Lanyu.

"Aaaaahh!! Master help! I'm going to get eaten!!" Lanyu screamed out and all he received was Li Xinwen's chuckle.
